Written by the pen of a high-ranking swordsman who has immersed
himself in the warrior traditions of old Japan for over fifty years
and author of several books relating to the Samurai culture and its
traditions, here are some absorbing short tales supported by the
author's own illustrations that will take the reader directly back
to both ancient and medieval Japan. The stories end in the final
upheavals of the mid-sixteenth century prior to the unification of
Japan under the Tokugawa shoguns. Drawing inspiration from his own
extensive researches and popular folklore of late-nineteenth
century scholars, these brilliantly crafted stories offer an
authentic flavour of the humour, hardships, and sudden violence of
a country often suffering from war. Dangers lie hidden on all
sides... Compulsive reading.
